Reply to "Can we please STOP talking about "mental health"?"

Thanks - what a great conversation. I'm also interested in the "DOs" that Frameworks suggests so if anyone finds the time to read the whole article and excerpt that would be great! Cissy and Corinna's comments about simple language remind me of the importance of trauma informed practices such as Community Meeting where people are asked the simple question "How are you feeling right now." It provides an opportunities to say things like "I'm feeling anxious, stressed, sad, vulnerable, scared, freaked out etc.. (some places pass out a list of feeling words to facilitate the process).
